"> (3,)" works but looks like the code is checking for Python 4.
"<= (3, 5)" was intended to check for versions up to and including 3.5, and probably works that
way in current type checkers. However, sys.version_info is actually a 5-tuple that is greater
than (3, 5), so a hypothetical type checker that uses the full version info would interpret
this check incorrectly.
This ensures that all version_info comparisons use <, >=, ==, or !=.
Both mypy and pytype only use the major and minor version in type checking. Using
checks like "sys.version_info >= (3, 4, 4)" won't actually work properly for
people type checking their code using version 3.4, because (3, 4) >= (3, 4, 4) will
always be false (at least in mypy's approach; not sure if pytype is different).
Fixes#975
And a few more things I noticed while reading the tempfile docs.
In 3.5, most functions in tempfile were changed to accept either str or bytes in their prefix and suffix arguments, and return bytes or str accordingly. This seemed like a case for AnyStr.
We were missing tempdirb and tempprefixb, added in 3.5.
TemporaryFile and others were declared as returning BinaryIO, but they actually return either binary or text IO depending on the mode passed in. I changed the return type to IO[Any], similar to builtins.open.
* Missing special attributes of class instances inherited from object
* object.__reduce__ returns a tuple
It's up to its inheritors to return either a tuple or a string.
The concurrent.futures.Future class's set_exception() method might be
called with a BaseException that is not an Exception, so change
set_exception()'s parameter type from Exception to BaseException. The
exception set via set_exception() is returned by exception(), so
change exception()'s return type from Exception to BaseException.
A previous PR led mypy to refuse to instantiate ChainMap,
because it had unimplemented abstract methods.
This PR adds the abstract methods to the stub,
which is enough to persuade mypy to allow instantiating
ChainMap.
As of Python 3.3, copymode, copystat, copy and copy2 take an
optional argument, 'follow_symlinks'.
As of Python 3.3, copytree and move return the destination.
As of Python 3.5, move takes an optional copy function.
As of Python 3.3, disk_usage, chown, which and get_terminal_size
were added.
